Description
This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/187,760, filed Jul. 1, 2002, which application is incorporated herein by reference.
I. Field of the Invention
The present invention generally relates to computer networks and communications across wireless computer networks. More particularly, the invention relates to the collection and analysis of data from remote devices, provided from a device-resident diagnostic interface, on a wireless network.
II. Description of the Related Art
Wireless networking connects one or more wireless computer devices to other computer devices without a direct electrical connection, such as a copper wire or optical cable. Wireless computer devices communicate data, typically in the form of packets, across a wireless or partially wireless computer network and open a “data” or “communication” channel on the network such that the device can send and receive data packets. The computer devices often have computer device resources, such as programs and hardware components, which individually use open communication connections to transmit and receive data on the network.
In wireless networking, a peer-to-peer (or point-to-point) wireless network means that each computer can communicate directly with every other computer on the network. A cellular telecommunication network can be a wireless network wherein the cellular devices transmit voice or data packets across the cellular network. As used herein, the term “cellular” includes a telecommunication network of any frequency band including, but not limited to the common wireless networks operating at 800 MHz, 1900 MHz, 450 MHz, 1800 MHz, and 2100 MHz, and all forms of wireless networks, to include CDMA, GSM, TDMA, WCDMA, and UMTS. Some wireless networks are in client/server architecture, and have an access point, which is a wired controller that receives and transmits data to the wireless adapters installed in each computer. There are generally four types of wireless computer networks: Bluetooth, Infrared Data Association, HomeRF (SWAP); and WECA (Wi-Fi).
Bluetooth is not widely available yet and is not expected to replace the need for high-speed data networks between computers. Infrared Data Association (IrDA) is a standard for computer devices to communicate using infrared light pulses, similarly to how remote controls operate. Since IrDA computer devices use infrared light, they depend on being in direct line of sight with each other. An IrDA-based network is currently capable of transmitting data at speeds up to 4 megabits per second (Mbps). HomeRF, RF standing for radio frequency, is based upon a standard called Shared Wireless Access Protocol (SWAP), with is a hybrid standard including six voice channels based on the digital enhanced cordless telecommunications (DECT) standard and the IEEE 802.11 wireless-Ethernet specification for data. SWAP devices make 50 hops per second and transmit at 1 Mbps. In most cases, SWAP-based networks are point-to-point. The Wireless Ethernet Compatibility Alliance (WECA) is essentially compliant with a variation of the IEEE 802.11 specification known as IEEE 802.11b. This specification focuses on direct-sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) transmission because of the higher data rate it can attain. Under 802.11b, devices communicate at a speed of 11 Mbps whenever possible.
There are many diagnostic tools usable with an extant wireless network that can give technicians feedback and performance data such that the network can be optimized among the various nodes thereof. In cellular networks, one method to gather network data is to equip automobiles with diagnostic equipment and have them drive around the cell coverage area and record connectivity with the cellular base stations. This method however is expensive to implement, time consuming, and often cannot obtain data for the full coverage area of the cell.
Moreover, the existing wireless telecommunication devices include resident diagnostic tools on their computer platform which are typically included at the time of manufacture. The manufacture accesses the diagnostic tools through a serial port or other wired connection and evaluates the operating parameters of the wireless device and the manufacture will appropriately adjust the hardware or software parameters of the device to yield optimal performance. These diagnostic tools are normally inaccessible remotely without a serial port connection.
Accordingly, it would be advantageous to provide a system and method that allows access to the diagnostic interface resident on the wireless device that is ordinarily not remotely accessible, thus providing remote access to diagnostic data and tools. The system and method may be implemented within existing software resident on the wireless device and without causing interruption of the existing data communication occurring across the wireless network. Further, such system should be able to take advantage of manipulating extant commands available on the chipset of the wireless device. It is thus to the provision of such a system and method of providing a remotely accessible diagnostic interface that the present invention is primarily directed.
The present invention is a system, method, and program for accessing a remote diagnostic interface on a wireless device in a wireless network having at least data communication between computer devices selectively connected thereto, such as cellular telecommunication devices on a cellular telecommunication network. The system particularly utilizes existing diagnostic interfaces on the wireless device to obtain status data such as device performance parameters and/or other network information, and can use commands to the diagnostic tools to alter device operations. In the system, a wireless network with at least data communication from computer devices selectively connected thereto has and a plurality of wireless devices located remotely from each other and each in selective communication with other computer devices across the wireless network. Each wireless device includes a computer platform, which can have an end user thereof, and the computer platform further includes a resident diagnostic interface for at least accessing status data that can include either device status data for the operating parameters of the wireless device, or network status data, or both, and the resident diagnostic interface is selectively accessible by other computer devices across the wireless network. Thus, other computer devices can access the diagnostic interface and at least get data therefrom, and alternately, can send commands to the diagnostic interface and alter the wireless device's and/or the wireless network's functionality.
The method for remotely interacting with a diagnostic interface of a wireless device across a wireless network includes the steps of establishing the wireless network between computer devices, with at least one of the computer devices a remotely located wireless device including a computer platform. The wireless device includes a resident diagnostic interface through which at least the status data (either of the device, network, or both) is accessible, and the method includes the step of accessing the wireless device diagnostic interface from another computer device across the wireless network, and then gathering at least status data of the wireless device through the wireless device diagnostic interface. If so embodied, the method can include the step of transmitting commands to the diagnostic interface of the wireless device to manipulate the device's operating parameters.
It is therefore an object of the system and method to provide remote access the resident diagnostic interface of a wireless device to access device data and tools. The system and method thus provide significant and valuable wireless device status and network status data detailing operation parameters to other devices on the network. Further, through commands to the diagnostic interface and manipulation of the wireless devices' diagnostic tools, the wireless device's functionality and network can be altered which assists in such functions as problem-solving and network optimization. The system and method thus provide an advantage in that the remote wireless devices in a wireless network, such as a cellular telecommunication network, can have their basic operational data accessed without compromising the functionality of the network, or the need to use external monitoring equipment or provide new equipment on the wireless device. In one embodiment, the access to the diagnostic interface can be created with a simple software extension within the device operating system that allows direct access to the chipset diagnostic interface. Alternately, an application (or software agent) can be downloaded to or manufactured in the wireless devices to provide the access an existing or new diagnostic interface, and can cause data to be transmitted from the interface to another computer device on the wireless network.
Other objects, advantages, and features of the present invention will become apparent after review of the hereinafter set forth Brief Description of the Drawings, Detailed Description of the Invention, and the Claims.
With reference to the figures in which like numerals represent like elements throughout,
The use of cellular telecommunication pathways has been increasing because wireless devices, such as cellular telephone 12, are being manufactured with increased computing capabilities and are becoming tantamount to personal computers and hand-held personal digital assistants (“PDAs”), communicating packets including voice and data over the wireless network. These “smart” cellular telephones have installed application programming interfaces (“APIs”) onto their local computer platform that allow software developers to create software applications that operate on the cellular telephone, and control certain functionality on the device.
The system 10 can utilize the existing wireless device diagnostic interface and any resident tools that are manufactured with the device, such as data throughput, signal strength, ASIC diagnosis, graphics display, dropped call statistics, access probe statistics, RX sensitivity, transmission power, and other hardware and software diagnostic tools resident on the wireless device common in the art. The data at the diagnostic interface is indicative of wireless device performance, and some of the data can be indicative of network status and performance issues. Both types of data can be supplied in the system 10. The device operational parameter data are typically accessed from a serial connection at the time of manufacture or serving and are not traditionally available as data reads or writes from a wireless device computer platform 50 (
Through the use of the diagnostic interface software extension, a remote server 16 at least reads status data therefrom, and in some instances, writes commands to the interface and alters the operation of the wireless device 12,18,20,22. Accordingly, the access to the remote device diagnostic interface allows network optimization, customer interaction, remote wireless device monitoring, device testing and certification, and the gathering of specific user information for a wireless device.
On the LAN network 30, the server 16 can be in communication with a separate storage 32 for the data gathered from the remote wireless devices 12,18,20,22, such as device status data. The server 16 and its corresponding PC or data access can give a ready view of the wireless device status data collected from the wireless devices in any form, such as tables, maps, graphics views, plain text, or any other display as would be known to known of skill in the art. The server 16 (or plurality of servers) can send software agents or applications to wireless devices 12,18,20,22 in the wireless network area 28 such that the wireless devices return data from their resident diagnostic interface, such as system performance data, user ID, geographic position, Network ID, System ID, model ID, resident software, and the like. The wireless devices 12,18,20,22 then transmit the requested status data to the server 16, or other computer device on the network, wherein the data can be used for purposes such as network optimization, even in real-time or near-real-time if desired, device diagnosis, or data mining on end-user device usage. Further, there can be a separate data management server 34 resident that works in concert to provide data in usable formats to parties and/or a separate layer of control in the data flow between the wireless devices 12,18,20,22 and the server 16 or data storage 32.
The wireless device status data-gathering server 16 and the wireless device status and, in this embodiment, a network optimization database 32, and data management server 34, will be present on the cellular data network with any other components that are needed to provide cellular telecommunication services. The server 16, and/or data management server 34 communicate with a carrier network through a data manager 40, through a data link, such as the Internet, a secure LAN, WAN, or other network. The carrier network controls messages (generally being data packets) sent to a messaging service controller (“MSC”) 42. The carrier network communicates with the MSC 42 by a network, the Internet, and/or POTS (“plain ordinary telephone system”). Typically, the network or Internet connection between the carrier network and the MSC 42 transfers data, and the POTS transfers voice information. The MSC 42 is connected to multiple base stations (“BTS”) 44. In a similar manner to the carrier network, the MSC 42 is typically connected to the BTS 44 by both the network and/or Internet for data transfer and POTS for voice information. The BTS 44 ultimately broadcasts messages wirelessly to the wireless devices, such as cellular telephone 12, by short messaging service (“SMS”), or other over-the-air methods known in the art.
Each wireless device, such as cellular telephone 12, has a computer platform 50 that can receive and execute software applications and display data transmitted from the application download server 16 or other network servers 34. The computer platform 50 also includes an application-specific integrated circuit (“ASIC”) 52, or other chipset, processor, microprocessor, logic circuit, or other data processing device. The ASIC 52 is installed at the time of manufacture of the wireless device and is not normally upgradeable. The ASIC 52 or other processor executes the application programming interface (“API”) layer 54 that interfaces with any resident programs in the memory 56 of the wireless device. The memory can be comprised of read-only or random-access memory (RAM and ROM), EPROM, EEPROM, flash cards, or any memory common to computer platforms. The computer platform 50 also includes a local database 58 that can hold the software applications, file, or data not actively used in memory 56, such as the software applications or data downloaded from the server 16. The local database 58 is typically comprised of one or more flash memory cells, but can be any secondary or tertiary storage device as known in the art, such as magnetic media, EPROM, EEPROM, optical media, tape, or soft or hard disk. The local database 58 can ultimately hold a resident copy of a network optimization application or agent as is further described herein
In one embodiment, the wireless device diagnostic interface can be accessed through a class of software commands on the wireless device 12,18,20,22. A software class extension can communicate with the diagnostic tools of the phone, which allows both data reads and commands. This class can send commands, including register for log messages and event notifications, on behalf of the applications that invoke it. The class object can then forward the responses of the diagnostic tools units to the applications or ultimately across the network. Notifications of connection and disconnection of external interfaces (outside the wireless device) can be sent to applications if they register with the device manager for notice. Each wireless device resident application can create an instance of this new software class to communicate with the diagnostic tools independently. Such internal connections, i.e. among applications and the diagnostic tools, operate independently and can also operate simultaneously with an external interface, but the external interface has the option to also monitor the internal interface.
Thus, in one embodiment, the system 10 can push at least one network optimization application to be resident, at least temporarily, on the computer platform 50 of each wireless device 12,18,20,22 that causes that wireless device to selectively transmit wireless device status data for that wireless device and/or network status to another computer device on the wireless network. Alternately, the network optimization application can be placed on the platform 50 at the time of manufacture or initial programming, or the wireless device 12,18,20,22 can “pull” the application from another computer device on the network, such as server, either with a request from the end-user, or automatically. The status data can include, but is not limited to, data from both the diagnostic tools and from other device components, such as signal strength, Ec/Io, Latitude-Longitude or other geographical data, Time, FER, BER, RSSI, PN, System ID, or Network ID, Model ID, and can capture wireless device 12,18,20,22 state data, such as idleness, data or voice call, dormancy or inoperation, which is generated from wireless device operation. Moreover, the wireless device status data can allow for specific troubleshooting of a device within the wireless network 14 based upon the gathered status data. The network optimization application or agent can be permanently stored in the local database 58 of the wireless device computer platform 50, or can only be temporarily held in memory 56 thereof for a one time (or n-time) execution to transmit network status data.
In one embodiment, the network optimization application transmits the wireless device status data from that wireless device 12,18,20, 22 to a server 16 across the wireless network 14 when requested. Alternately, the network status data is transmitted over an open communication connection from the wireless device 12,18,20,22 to the wireless network 14, and thus “piggybacked” across an open connection, such as a voice or data call at the cellular telephone 12. In a cellular network configuration such as that shown in
The specific process of the program executing on the server 16 for optimizing the wireless network 14 through use of the wireless device resident diagnostic interface is shown in the flowchart of
A determination is made as to whether the status data has been received at the server 16, as shown at decision 78. If the status data has not been received, then an error is returned to the calling process, as shown at step 80, and the process ends. Otherwise, if the status data has been received at the server 16 at decision 78, then the wireless network 14 is optimized with the gathered wireless device status data, as shown at step 82. The optimization can occur on the specific server 16 that gathered the wireless device status data, or alternately, the optimization can occur on another computer device, such as data management server 34, or other wireless device, such as personal computer 22 on the wireless network 14.
As embodied here, the server 16 also transmits the optimization command data back to the wireless device 12,18,20,22 such that the wireless device can modify its functionality in accord with the optimal network through, at least, manipulation of the diagnostic tools, as shown at step 84, although such step is preferable and not necessary to operation of the present system. After the transmission of the command data to the wireless device at step 84, a determination is made as to whether the wireless device has the requisite agents for future status data transmission, as shown at decision 86. If the wireless device 12,18,20,22 does have the proper network optimization application or agent to transmit status data, then the process returns to step 76 and selectively prompts the wireless device to transmit status data when necessary. Otherwise, if the wireless device 12,18,20,22 does not have the requisite application or agent, then the process returns to step 66 and attempts to load the specific application or agent onto the wireless device 12,18,20,22 with any end-user permission requested.
A determination is then made as to whether the status data has been requested, as shown at decision 98, such request coming from server 16 at step 70 in
While the diagnostic interface 118 is accessed through a software application extension in this embodiment, the interface can alternately be constructed in hardware or firmware, or combinations thereof with software. The importance of the interface is that the resident diagnostic interface 118, which is typically only accessible via a hardwire connection during manufacture or servicing, is accessible remotely such that the carrier or other network entity can access the diagnostic data and/or commands across the network, without a hardwire connection.
The data generated from the diagnostic interface 118 of the wireless device 12,18,20,22 can then be uploaded from the wireless device through a standard HTTP, such as shown at block 124, or other FTP or data transfer protocols can be used. The device data is then gathered at a data server 126 and can be stored there or other processes can be executed thereupon, such as by post processor 130, which can include canonization, normalization, data mining or other process. Other business or commercial systems, shown by block 128, can access the gathered data, preferably in a monitored fashion such as through a user manager 132 to maintain security and/or integrity of the data of the data server 126. Other computer devices, both storage and processing, can be located on the carrier side, and accordingly, the carrier architecture is readily scalable.
The present system therefore provides a method for remotely interacting with a diagnostic interface 118 of a wireless device 12,18,20,22 across a wireless network 14, comprising the steps of establishing a wireless network 14 having at least data communication between computer devices selectively connected thereto, at least one of the computer devices a remotely located wireless device 12,18,20,22 including a computer platform 50, possibly having an end-user thereof, and the wireless device 12,18,20,22 including a resident diagnostic interface 118 through which at least status data include the wireless device status of the operating parameters of the wireless device and/or network 14 status data is accessible. Then the method can include the steps of accessing the wireless device diagnostic interface 118 from another computer device, such as server 16, across the wireless network 14, and gathering at least the status data of the wireless device 12,18,20,22 through the wireless device diagnostic interface 118. The method can further include the steps of selectively transmitting status data from at least one wireless device 12,18,20,22 to at least one other computer device, such as server 16, on the wireless network 14, and receiving the transmitted status data at the at least one other computer device.
The method can include the step of optimizing the wireless network 14 based upon the received status data, and the step of transmitting wireless status data can occur from the execution of an application resident on the computer platform 50 of the at least one wireless device that accesses the diagnostic interface, such as diagnostic interface application 112. The method can also. include the steps of transmitting command data across the wireless network 14 to the at least one wireless device 12,18,20,22, receiving the command data at the diagnostic interface 118 of the at least one wireless device, and modifying the wireless device operation through manipulation of operating parameters based upon the received command data. Further, the method can include the step of pushing or pulling an application onto the computer platform 50 of the at least one wireless device 12,18,20,22 to provide access of one or more computer devices on the wireless network 14 to the diagnostic interface 118 of that wireless device, such as pushing diagnostic interface application 112 onto cellular telephone 12.
In one embodiment, the system can be implemented solely on the wireless device 12,18,20,22 that provides remote access to its resident diagnostic interface. The wireless device can have at least one application or agent resident (either permanent or temporarily) on the computer platform 50 thereof which causes the gathering of status data from the resident diagnostic tools, such as diagnostic interface application 112, which can effect selective transmission of the status data for that wireless device to another computer device (such as server 16) on the wireless network 14. If the wireless device 12,18,20,22 is so embodied, the wireless device status data and/or network data is transmitted over an open communication connection from the wireless device 12,18,20,22 to the wireless network 14, such as an open voice or data call. If the wireless device is a cellular telephone 12 and the wireless network is a cellular telecommunication network, such as shown in
In view of the method being executable on the computer platforms of a wireless device 12,18,20,22, and a server 16, the method includes a program resident in a computer readable medium, where the program directs a computer device 12,18,20,22 having a device platform 50 to perform the steps of the method. Such program can be executed on any single computer platform, or can be multithreaded among several computer platforms. Furthermore, the method can be implemented by a program that directs a computer device such as server 16 to perform the steps of optimizing the network through gathering and processing status data from the wireless devices 12,18,20,22.
The computer readable medium can be the memory 56 of the computer platform 50 of the cellular telephone 12, or other wireless device 18,20,22, or can be in a local database, such as local database 58 of the device platform 50.
